Chapter 1119: Essence Beast

Ning was finally allowed into the fortress, although with a few people following him discreetly. They were there to watch over him just in case he came into contact with someone else.

He had been handed back his sword, so he definitely wasn't a prisoner for sure.

He entered the fortress with Sophie and the rest. The massive stone fortress was nearly a kilometer wide, housing many streets and buildings within it, no different from a regular city.

However, since everything was built in the fort, it all felt like one large building that they had to navigate.
